Table of Contents:
  • Contents: Peptide and protein synthesis is the most robust of all synthetic chemistries
  • Very large combinatorial libraries with billions of different peptides are possible
  • Highly constrained peptides with specific secondary (phi/psi space) and tertiary (chi space) structures can be designed and synthesized
  • Peptides stable to proteolytic degradation and able to cross BBB can be synthesized
  • Peptides designed and synthesized with potent and selective bioactivities
  • Many excellent drugs
  • Peptide synthesis a critical tool for all aspects of chemical biology
